Part II
Bound and Undetermined: Handling Particles in Bound States
In this part . . .
This part is where you get the lowdown on one of quantum physics’ favorite topics: solving the energy levels and wave functions for particles trapped in various bound states. For example, you may have a particle trapped in a square well, which is much like having a pea in a box. Or you may have a particle in harmonic oscillation. Quantum physics is expert at handling those kinds of situations.
